Maybe you’ve heard of air handlers. Maybe you haven’t. Even if you are familiar with the model of an air handler, you may not know if you could use one to improve your home comfort in Circleville. We’re here to help you understand what an air handler is and if one would benefit you in your home.
An air handler is the indoor unit of a split-system air conditioner or a heat pump. In essence, an air handler does what its title says: it handles air. It helps your split system or heat pump push cooled or warmed air around the ducts of your house. The air handler encompasses the evaporator coil and the blower in your ventilation system, together with other mechanisms. When the weather is warm, the air handler pushes air through your home, which helps sustain proper comfort levels within your home. Some forms of air handlers even have heat strips to strengthen the heating power or your heat pump when the weather gets calmer.
A correctly maintained and working air handler can help lessen utility bills and a create a longer lifetime for your split system or heat pump.
